MG Software Lawsuit

[EVentropy]

And the damage being what? I cannot morally sell my car because manufacturer installed OS software that hasn’t fulfilled its terms of use, therefore I must disclose to new owner the impediment and discount price to compensate?
Lot of ifs and buts.
Define illegal car?
OS software owner and aggrieved owner will have to team up to gain any traction at all as suggested earlier. SAIC will just say sw was a freebee under gpl.
Absolutely out of my depth

If the German authorities decide the car is not allowed to be used, there is damage.
It is similar to a case where each car manufacturer has to state a car functions according EU 2021/646. This regulation contains the demands for an EU type-approval of vehicles with regard to their emergency lane-keeping systems.
If a car does not comply with this regulation, type approval could be rejected or withdrawn. That car is no longer allowed on the European roads.
